Australia and New Zealand Appearances Kick Off in Perth October 19

After dazzling audiences with their first ever Down-Under shows in 2007, jazz rock icons STEELY DAN are returning for an encore tour in October. The multi-Grammy Award winning artists will play arena concerts in Sydney, Melbourne, Christchurch and Auckland along with several gigs at A Day At The Green events in both countries.
